Privacy Policy

As a user of our website, you will receive all necessary information in this data protection declaration about how, to what extent and for what purpose we or third-party providers collect data from you and process it. The collection and use of your data is strictly in accordance with the legal requirements, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU-DSGVO) and the Federal Data Protection Act (new). We feel particularly committed to the confidentiality of your personal data and therefore work strictly within the limits set by the legal requirements. Personal data is processed on a voluntary basis, if this is possible for us. We also only pass this data on to third parties with your express consent. We ensure a high level of security for particularly confidential data, e.g. with regard to your inquiries to us, by using SSL encryption. However, we would like to take this opportunity to point out the general dangers of Internet use over which we have no control. Especially in e-mail traffic, your data is not safe without further precautions and may be collected by third parties.

Scope of the processing of personal data

In general, the use of this website is possible without the input and processing of personal data. However, for the processing of certain transactions, for example via the contact or order form, it may be necessary for you to provide us with data. The following categories of data may be collected by us in this case:

E-mail address

The provision of this data is voluntary. However, if you do not provide us with the required personal data, your request may not be processed.

Collection of access data

The delivery and presentation of content via our website technically requires the collection of certain data. When you access our website, these so-called server log files are collected by us or the provider of the web space. These log files do not allow any conclusions to be drawn about you and your person. The corresponding information consists of: Name of the website you accessed, the web browser and its version, the operating system used, the current date, the domain name of your internet provider, names of downloaded files, the referrer URL as the page from which you accessed our site, and the corresponding IP address.

We evaluate this technical data anonymously and only for statistical purposes in order to be able to constantly optimize our Internet presence and make our Internet offers even more attractive. This data is stored separately from other personal information on secure systems. No conclusions are drawn about individual persons. We reserve the right to subsequently check the data mentioned should there be any suspicion of unlawful use of our offer.

Purpose of the processing of personal data

Your personal data will be processed for the following purposes:

Processing of inquiries arising from the contact form.

Server log files only: display and delivery of the contents of our website; statistical purposes.

In accordance with the following legal basis, we process your personal data:

6 para. 1 lit. a) (EU DSGVO): You have given us your consent.

6 para. 1 lit. f) (EU DSGVO): Our legitimate interests outweigh your interests worthy of protection.

In the context of data avoidance and data economy, we process personal data only to the extent and for as long as it is necessary for the use of our website, or as required by law.

If the purpose or legal basis for data processing ceases to apply and the end of the statutory storage period has been reached, the collected data will be deleted or blocked if the statutory storage period still applies. Without an explicit consent from your side or a legal basis, your personal data will not be disclosed to third parties.

The collected data will not be used for automated individual case decisions or profiling or scoring.

Your rights as a data subject

You can obtain information free of charge at any time (Art. 15 EU-DSGVO) about the personal data we have stored about you, as well as about the origin, the recipient and the purpose of the data processing. You also have the right to request the correction (Art. 16 EU-DSGVO), blocking (Art. 18 EU-DSGVO) or deletion (Art. 17 EU-DSGVO) of your data. Exempt from this is data that is retained due to legal regulations or is required for proper business processing. You have the right to object to the processing of your data (Art. 21 EU-DSGVO) as well as the right to data portability (Art. 20 EU-DSGVO).

Right of objection

Pursuant to Art. 21 (1) EU-DSGVO, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, unless it is for the performance of a contract, a legal obligation or the protection of vital interests.

You have the right at any time to revoke a given consent to the processing of personal data with effect for the future. Processing that took place before the revocation is not affected by this.

If data is not covered by a legal archiving obligation, we will delete your data at your request. If the archiving obligation applies, we will block your data.

For all questions and concerns regarding the correction, blocking or deletion of personal data, please contact our data protection officer using the contact details in this data protection declaration or at the address given in the imprint.

We have taken technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from loss, destruction, manipulation and unauthorized access. All our employees and all persons involved in data processing are obliged to comply with the EU-DSGVO, the Federal Data Protection Act (new) and other data protection-related laws and to handle personal data confidentially.

SSL encryption

Our website uses SSL encryption when transmitting confidential or personal content of our users. This encryption is activated, for example, during the processing of payment transactions as well as for inquiries that you send to us via our website. Please make sure that SSL encryption is activated for corresponding activities on your part. The use of encryption is easy to recognize: The display in your browser bar will change from “http://” to “https://”. Data encrypted via SSL cannot be read by third parties. Only transmit your confidential information when SSL encryption is activated and contact us in case of doubt.

Third-party content and services

The offer on our website may also include content, services and benefits from other providers that complement our offer. Examples of such offers are maps from Google maps, YouTube videos or graphic representations of third parties. Calling up these third-party services regularly requires the transmission of your IP address. This makes it possible for these providers to perceive your user IP address and also to store it. We make every effort to include only those third-party providers that use IP addresses solely for the purpose of delivering content. However, we have no influence on which third-party provider stores the IP address, if any. This storage may serve statistical purposes, for example. If we become aware of storage processes by third-party providers, we will immediately inform our users of this fact. In this context, please also note the specific privacy statements of individual third-party providers and service providers whose services we use on our website.
